Let's see, the Wings get a goal waved off, and it was a bad call. Holmstrom was NOT in the crease whatsoever. Cleary taps at a rebound in the crease, and it hits the post. Turco plays out of his mind ... And the Wings lose.
I never expected a sweep. While it was nice to think of getting this over in four games, there was every reason to believe the Stars would come up with a monster effort last night. They did, winning, 3-1.
I think there was great hope when Zetterberg tied it 1-1 at the start of the period, and then when the Wings seemed to take over for the next 4-5 minutes.
But Dallas deserved to win this one. The Stars were a little bit better on Wednesday night. They had a little more jump. And, for the first time in the series, they got some huge, huge breaks.
Ozzie was great at the start; he kept the Wings from falling into a hole in the first period.
So, we move back to the Joe for Game 5. I have some reservations, because as Stars coach Dave Tippet, as well as Modano, said last night, the two-day rest serve that team in a positive manner.
But I have faith in the Wings. I think they end it Saturday.
They had better, however, because if they let the Stars climb completely back into this series, I can see Game 7. Yikes.
